It's absolutely insane that MS is doing this, it takes all this effort to use your own hardware? How are people not outraged by this!

Good afternoon Thank you very much for this tutorial. I was blocked for several months because of this antivirus which cancelled all the downloads that I had to carry out and I was really depressed. Thanks to you I have been able to deactivate the antivirus and this has enabled me to download the software that allows me to work at ease. I've seen all the videos on how to deactivate this antivirus and I haven't been able to do it until now. Thanks again and bravo......................................! May God bless you

[@alexaltevers9801]

How would one re-enable windows defender? Need to disable just to install a driver and then want to turn back on. Would I simply remove all of the dword values that we created? Thanks for the great video!

[@sativva1284]

Same Problem

[@maccagrabme]

Im guessing you should have made a backup of the registry before tampering with it then revert back to the original reg file, also saving the modified version when you need to disable defender.

[@bengtmowitz5012]

Why would one want to disable itself? Used several "free" antivirus programs and I really don't see that defender nowadays is any way inferior?

[@MrSham3less]

If you have common sense like not opening sus links in emails or downloading stuff you shouldn't be from fishy websites then you don't need it. Or maybe if you're already using an another antivirus program

[@Britec09]

I never said you should disable it if you watch the whole video.

Can anyone explain how to restore defender? Is it the same way i.e, by deleting the changes we made in the registry?

[@caillousdad5786]

if you have an old antiquated system (8700k and below) disable it.. 9900k is entry level, you can leave defender on and there isn't any noticeable performance issue. any newer cpu can still leave it on.

[@edtechsolutions694]

Thanks Brian for the video. But my question is; where do you get those created REG names? how is the registry name have impact on the registry function? Cn any regname from my head works as long as it has keywords for the functions?

[@4444pro]

Some of these Keys werent in Registryt so i created them and it works perfect thank

[@Peppermint1]

If you installed Win 10 in 2023, Windows will keep deleting the DisableAntiSpyware key after about 24 hours (even if you don't restart your computer). So Defender still restarts after about 24 hours. The only way to keep Defender off is to keep the "Virus & threat protection settings" window open on your desktop showing the Real-time protection toggle, and keep switching this toggle to off - windows will regularly switch it back to on.

[@DeianDeduSilviu]

Does it work for windows 10 also? I tried to shut off windows defender but it reactivates itself after restarting

[@Alpha-ms9nj]

I just watched another video and that one only instructed to add only the first reg value and key, restarted it after that, downloaded and installed an antivirus software (Bitdefender) and all was going well until Windows wouldn't even allow me to open Bitdefender. It just flashed. So..I checked the new registry value and key and it had disappeared. Uninstalled Bitdefender, restarted again and Windows defender had returned. I'm getting really frustrated with Windows 10 and about ready to toss it away for good. I will try again using this multiple reg edit method and see if that works. If not I will uninstall Windows 10 and go back to using and continue learning Linux Mint 21.

Hey, @Britec09. I have three questions. First, what is your (not just you but everyone who posts registry tweaks) source for registry information? Google shows a million and one pages of registry hacks but finding something like "Registry 101" has been difficult. Second, would removing Defender components from the ISO image in NTLite achieve the same thing? Third, if the presence of a third-party AV disables Defender automatically, what would be the point of editing the Registry? Great video but I'd like to know *_why_* as well as *_how._*

Norton missed that my networking had been changed to 'Public'. Another, recommended by my service provider, made a complete hash of re-subscribing every single time, on four different laptops. That one works well on Sandra's Android phone. But it is a waste of time on Windows. I do get asked to confirm some 3rd party programs I need for amateur radio, photo and video processing. Windows Defender asked me to vouch for those, and I had no more obstructions. No Virus Defender can be perfect. It is an ever-evolving area in computing. But, right now, Windows Defender looks to me more competent than some of the others I have come across.
